A delicious Fall Pumpkin Chili made with ground turkey, beans, pumpkin, green chiles & spices is the perfect Fall meal. It’s both healthy and delicious! Top with your favorite chili toppings (sour cream, cilantro, red onion, and cheese) and serve with a side salad, and cornbread or tortilla chips.

Fall Pumpkin Chili

I love slow cooker meals, especially in the Fall and Winter. They just have a cozy comforting feel to them! This Fall Pumpkin Chili is definitely Fall comfort in a bowl. 

You begin by browning the ground turkey and adding in the onions and garlic. Once the meat is beginning to brown and the onions are a little tender, place all ingredients into your slow cooker. Easy Peasy! Dinner will be ready and waiting for you to dish it up!

Besides being a delicious, comforting, and healthy chili, once you add the toppings, it is such a pretty meal. We served ours with a side salad, some cornbread muffins, and a few of the Fall tortilla chips from Trader Joes. We also topped our chili with the Pumpkin Spiced Pumpkin seeds from TJ’s. They were a delicious addition the traditional chili toppings.
